Is UPS hurting

[1989]

Go short on UPS stock!

To avoid margin calls and paying dividends...try selling covered calls.

I didn't have enough shares so we borrowed heavy at 100 a share.

i’m in an area where Amazon Prime Delivery is now fully up and running. They ran the sort with a skeleton crew this morning. This time last year I was working 50+ hours a week. This week I finished with 31 hours, last week 36. And no, they do not have more preloaders this year. The seasonals will be lucky to make it to New Years.

At the money, or near the money puts would have been less risky. Probably cheaper and given you greater returns.

UPS stock is now at $98. It is so low that I would almost recommend buying them back and you could make a quick $10 per share as early as next summer.

Wait till they hit $94-95 lol.

I had the stock when it was private, made a nice return on my money. But buying company stock in any company you work for is very risky.

Come on, don’t be an old fart.

Apple options are more appealing.

It's good common sense. You paycheck, benefits and retirement all depend on the company you work for.
So why would you put all of your eggs in one basket and buy company stock?

Stock is down 2.2 since earlier in the week.

Yup. It *could* be the start of another recession in the making. Amazon is down 4 percent.

The yield curve will invert soon.
That guarantees a recession in the next 18 months

I think lots of stocks was just over priced.

Amazon stock is based on hopes and dreams (and maybe rainbows and unicorns ). Not as much on real world value.
